Top Pentax Optio E30 Camera Reviews
Trusted Reviews wrote a review on the
Pentax Optio E30 and said: "The E30’s one saving grace is
its picture quality, but even that has its limits. The lens
performs well, providing good corner-to-corner sharpness with
minimal distortion, and colour rendition and exposure are very
good. Dynamic range is fairly limited, but then it frequently is
with cameras in this class."
